Heavenly.

This place is breathtakingly gorgeous in every way. The setting, the service, and the interior space are all breathtaking. I would most certainly return and recommend friends and family.

Dit was 'n rustige paar dae op 'n baie mooi plek met 'n pragtige uitsig.

Daiquiri Shaq was 'n pragtige plek met 'n mooi uitsig aan elke kant. Dis op 'n heuwel met 'n see-uitsig en die area was baie stil en rustig. Die gasvrou het ons altyd dadelik geantwoord as ons haar iets gevra het en was baie gaaf en behulpsaam. Die plek is baie mooi binne en die blou en wit interieur het ons laat voel asof ons by die see is. Gaan bly gerus by Daiquiri Shaq as jy in die omgewing is.

It was a peaceful few days in a very nice place with a beautiful view.

Daiquiri Shaq was a beautiful place with a nice view on every side. It's on a hill with a sea view and the area was very quiet and peaceful. The hostess always answered us immediately when we asked her something and was very nice and helpful. The place is very nice inside and the blue and white interior made us feel like we were by the sea. Feel free to stop by Daiquiri Shaq if you're in the area.

Just book, you will not regret it.

The Daiquiri Shaq was a phenomenal experience. From the breathtaking views to the attention to detail in the accommodation itself, the Daiquiri Shaq truly transcends all expectations. Mandi goes above and beyond to ensure an enjoyable and comfortable stay. The rooms were spotless and the bathroom has ample space for a luxurious and relaxing shower. The entertainment provided was well above my expectations with a plethora of TV channel options as well as a Netflix profile for your assigned 'Shaq'. The kitchenette was well stocked along with all the essentials such as tea, coffee and sugar. There are enough pots and pans to allow for self-catering, as well as a private braai area in the front of your 'Shaq', which is also kitted out with braai equipment. There were no issues with privacy; all the windows had sufficient coverage with blinds and curtains. The bed was huge, truly something that you would expect from a 5-star hotel, and I had ample room to relax and even roll around without disturbing my partner. From the front of the 'Shaq', the ocean beckons you with welcoming waves. We watched the sunrise from the ocean's horizon as the West Coast succulents were washed in the bronze rays of the rising sun. To the back of the 'Shaq' are the green rolling hills, with natural West Coast fauna in the foreground. The scenic wind turbines in the far distance over the green hills offered a view that I have never seen before. The sun sets behind these hills are truly breathtaking. My partner and I sat in the private seating provided by our 'Shaq's' backdoor balcony and enjoyed the breeze while watching the sun finally retire. She even said that she saw a deer waltz by her while I was taking an amazing shower. Truly, words cannot summarise the experience that I had at the Daiquiri Shaq. Just book and enjoy. Not even the pictures do this place justice. You will not regret it.

Relaxing, breath-taking views, wonderful space to explore, had all the essentials.

Our stay was absolutely wonderful! The owners were so lovely and accommodating. The space is tastefully decorated and comes equipped with everything you need. With views of the mountains and fields on one side, and the ocean on the other side, you get to witness the most beautiful sunrises and sunsets. We will most definitely be back!

Uitstekende verblyf!

Ons het die absoluut beste verblyf by The Daiquiri Shaq gehad. Die plek was skoon en het alles gehad wat ons nodig gehad het. Ons het die klein details baie waardeer. Ons het 'n braai op die stoep gehou en die beste tyd ooit gehad. Ons sal beslis terugkom.

Oulike plek met mooi uitsig.

Ons het baie lekker gebly. Perfekte ligging bo op die berg met uitsig oor St Helenabaai asook oor na Paternoster en die see. Ons kon tot laat buite sit, want die stoep is goed beskut teen die wind en 'n tweede stoep vir oggende as die son skerp skyn.

Cute place with nice view.

We had a very nice stay. Perfect location on top of the mountain with a view over St Helena Bay as well as over to Paternoster and the sea. We could sit outside until late because the veranda is well sheltered from the wind and a second veranda for mornings when the sun shines brightly.

Goeie keuse vir 'n eenkant wegbreek en rus.

Die Daiquiri Shaq is fantasties geleë bo-op die rant bo St. Helenabaai vir uitsigte oos en wes vanaf die stoepe na die see. Dit is smaakvol ingerig vir twee met al die nodige geriewe en 'n ruim stort. Oppad na die Shaq word nog heelwat huise gebou en op feitlik al die toegangspaaie rondom Vredenburg is padwerke - dit was sleg vir ons besoek, maar belowe goeie toegang in die toekoms.

Good choice for a one-way break and rest.

The Daiquiri Shaq is fantastically located on top of the ridge above St. Helena Bay for views east and west from the verandas to the sea. It is tastefully furnished for two with all the necessary facilities and a spacious shower. On the way to the Shaq, quite a few houses are still being built and there are road works on practically all the access roads around Vredenburg - it was bad for our visit, but promises good access in the future.

Beautiful stay in lovely accommodation.

The Daiq Shaq is such a peaceful place, and we were welcomed by warm and friendly hosts. The well-equipped little apartment has a huge bed! Delightful sea views in both directions. Good for the soul.

Wow, we found a gem!

What a wonderful little place. It was super comfortable and clean with everything we needed. The views were amazing. We watched the sun setting from the deck and then had a braai on the other side overlooking the bay. We will definitely go back for a longer stay! Highly recommended.
